Last week I finally removed some bugs from my multi-instance chrome scripts on macOS.
I basically have different applications of chrome, each with a different profile. They wacht have a different app icon, browser color, and extensions.
It helps me focus a lot to have a different application (cmd-tab entry) for dev, media, general browsing.
Social media and other time traps are blocked on my general and dev browser.
Works very well I have to say. It copies Chrome using clonefiles (CoW on apfs) to save space.
The only thing is that updating goes through the main browser (automatic updates are buggy in this case). And I have to codesign when there’s an update, but the scripts take care of that.
